One of the two people is a Jagex Mod. One is some nobody who got banhammered and, like Durial, somehow managed to get a following of 10 year olds. See the difference?

A few quick questions; 1. Do you know what she looks like? 2. If so, how? Also, people get freaked out over this because of concern over your safety (as much as it seems otherwise). Obviously you may never give out information to help your "gf" "meet" you in person, but in this case it's more like someone slapping your hand away as you place the fork dangerously close to the electrical outlet. What's wrong with having an internet girlfriend? Nothing, although some see it as a cesspool of pedos and people who've become so desperate for love that their requirements are a pulse. Runescape isn't the place for your Public Displays of Affection, however. Also, if you got said internet girlfriend in Runescape, you'd be liable for a good blackmark or two, solicitation is against rule #1. But hey, whatever floats your boat. Just follow the rules, and you shouldn't care about what random people tell you on the internet. But you really, REALLY, should be careful. There are a LOT of pedophiles on the internet who pull stuff like this.

Agreed. Am I wrong in suspecting these kids of being the same group of trolls under different accounts? He can talk about loyalty while at the same time ditching the company he's "loyal" to. My heart....How ironic that would be.

When people say something isn't possible, it's usually because Jagex has already said it's not possible currently, not just because they think they know Java. Andrew Gower heads the team that works on engine upgrades, but the game is only as powerful as Runescript is, which is only as powerful as Java is. He has come out in the past to mention certain updates as impossible. For example, Jagex has said that fully featured clans will not be coming to Runescape as far as they can see, because the system wouldn't be able to handle the load brought on by another database of that size. Player Owned Houses will always be instanced and stored on another server. Player Owned Shops are impossible currently, although they still haven't thrown the idea off the table.

The dead horse that is the "What u guise fink bout dat traed limit" must be getting really sick of every 10 year old coming in, digging up its grave, and beating it with its own gravestone. This topic has been discussed to death, and has anyone noticed that the thread starter is usually someone who's annoyed that they can't scam/drop trade or break some other rule now? Two years too late. At this point you should've chosen between the "deal with it or quit" solution. Just quoting in case of snip.

Can't wait for the fairy trilogy to finally be complete. Must...Kill...Fairy godfather.

More importantly; If a company is operating illigitemately in China, it means they're probably not report income on their taxes. Not doing so, should they be caught illegally operating a business, would constitute tax fraud. In China, an act as simple as Tax Fraud can carry the death penalty. But wait, there's more! China rolled out a legion of death busses, roaming on-the-go lethal injections to anywhere in China to deal with the high number of executions performed every year (China executes more per 100,000 than any other country, and those are just confirmed. The real number is kept a state secret). And I do mean anywhere.

When the hell is that cape coming? I'm as patient as the next guy, but they said "soon" a good long time ago. Yes there are higher priorities, but how long does it take to make 1 cape? That's Mod MMG's clan chat.

It's a vicious cycle; and it's present in all games. The higher levels make fun of the lower levels, who eventually become higher leveled and continue the tradition making fun of lower levels. Present in life...except the younger kids wanna be like the older kids... [bleep]s and booze True, true. Where I live, and I'm sure it's the same elsewhere, everyone's been drunk several times before they hit even 18 (Drinking age is 21). Vodka and cranberry. Mmm. I only drink a little at weddings and very specific other events. I don't see the appeal. Never smoked though, don't intend to.

Was 14 when I joined, just recently turned 20. The high level characters you're speaking of are probably Pest Control Products, players who would've normally quit long before reaching high combat, but managed to achieve it quickly when Pest Control gave massive amounts of xp.

A psychologist? Aww hell naw. I ain't going back! That garbage about me "being a threat to himself and those around him" isn't going to work a second time. -.- Although I do miss the potbelly pigs. Thoughts of bacon, running through my brain.

omg mai opinyun! :ohnoes: I automatically took a dislike to this thread because, much like the weekly "OMG DEY CALED ME N00B" thread, there's nothing new, it's been talked to death, and it's already been refuted hundreds of times over. Was that a question? I'll answer it; No, my opinion is not something you could live without. It is like the fountain of youth; all (yes, even you) may bathe in the amazement that is its healing powers. I've made my point earlier, so let's just throw the gloves off for a minute. You really love playing the victim, don't you? You have no ability to take in criticism without throwing yourself on the floor in the fetal position and cowering, calling everyone around you who even so much as projects disapproval, a bully. I had a kid in my school who did that. He ended up with a pencil lodged in his hand after trying to push my stuff off my desk for the fifth time. . You act exactly like the immature, rude players you rant about in your thread. I'm going to go back to my first post and take what was originally a joke, and make it a little more serious now; You act exactly like the people you rant about. You say you joined when Runescape was a fruitful paradise. How convenient that the population started going down just as you arrived. Angry mob? You may proceed. But I'm going to stop feeding the troll that calls himself OP.

I'd definitely report it, it'd appear you've stumbled upon a tried and true bug. Well I do whatever I want, so someone else should test it. Gonna go back to farcasting my bag of poisoned granite mauls and making super sets with balls of wool and raw beef.

The children who won't be buying gold anymore, or the children who won't be eating because income went poot?

Semenaide! The first sports drink you consume whilst making sexy time.

Not only that, but there goes 9 million of WoW's subscribers.

The moment we've all been waiting with eager anticipation since Jagex first started fighting with sleeping bags and fatigue is here! In a sweeping move, China has banned Goldfarming! http://www.informationweek.com/news/int ... =218101859 Break out the and the energy drinks. It's goldfarmer hunting season! Now, obviously, the goldfarmers in china who are doing this already aren't exactly legit businessmen, but now it's official.

I'm sorry, where have I made a single personal attack against the OP? I've yet to see any of that pointed out that wasn't taken out of the exaggerated joke context it was made to be as obvious as possible without putting in the winky smilies. As for the "Grow some E-balls", don't throw us both in the same cart. And if I remember correctly, in the previous thread I directed the OP's attention to John Gabriel's accepted theory; The Greater Internet [bleep]wad theory (Look it up). But I've yet to see the OP, in between his bouts of playing victim, or the rest of your troop, refute any of the points I've made. It always comes back to OP: Point Me: Counterpoint OP: YOUS TROLIN! Which in a thread where the OP is trying to call other people immature, takes any shred of credibility he has and throws it directly into the toilet (right next to Wilderness Tag). So please, a counterpoint to my own counterpoint if you will. And the first person to refute me with "See? Ur trollin" gets a boot to the chest, and choked out.

If you actually read the whole story and not nit-pick then you'd know that I have no problem with people having their own opinions, but I do when they start to have a go at me for raising the issue.. as Omalli (or whatever his name is) and bauku did. You need to stop being so defensive and figure out the difference between a debate and a personal attack. And I debate like a UFC Wrestler; expect to be thrown into a table and have a few fingers and possibly a spine broken. Metaphorically speaking of course. -Omali Tip.It's Hardk0r3 Debat0r :ugeek:

I see what you did there. As my good friend Larry King once said, if it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck. It's a duck. You can call it whatever you'd like, it's still a duck.

One more thing I'd like to point out; In the 2008 period the community seemed to get, if anything, tamer. That can be attributed to the fact that quite a number of the vocal pkers "quit", many of them actually quitting the game, the rest just went silent to make it seem like they left. So, if anything, if the community appears to be going downhill, it's because a lot of these players quit, and are now back thanks to the recent updates of Bounty Hunter and PVP worlds. Simple moments of circumstance. Well, if you're interacting with players on positive basees (Trading, etc) less, then the negative moments will just stand out more. But you do make a point.

Anyway, the discussion moves onward! Miniclip did bring in a lot of kids, I'll agree, but I still maintain my point of it being a natural effect of the community getting larger and that, for every X amount of people you bring in, you will always have a certain number of bad eggs. If you go by a closed doors experiment, like Runescape Classic, you'd see that only a certain type of player was eligible for continuing play, and as a result mostly hardcore classic players and autoers are left. If you were to open it to the public again, we'd see the return of "OMG rsc sux" threads and questions of how people can level runecrafting when it isn't even on the skill list. Your thoughts? Chilled beverage?

Clearly my joke went over your head. I feel sorry for people who try to crack a joke on you. "Yo" "Yo mama!" "WHY DO YOU HATE MY FAMILY YOU STUPID NAZI FACE JERK!?!?!" What are we discussing? How a small part of Runescape's community is making you rage? And this is a rant. The entire discussion is why you think Runescape went downhill, and my side is that it hasn't gone downhill, it's just a lot more noticable. If you have 10 people in a room, and one of them is screaming his head off, it's annoying. If you have 100 people in a room, and 10 of them are screaming their heads off, it's more noticable, yet statistically only 1 in 10 are screaming their heads off. Adult discussions come out of adult topics. There are countless other threads I participate in that are 'adult discussions' that go smoothly, but threads that focus around how much ___ sucks will always end in two disagreeing sides, usually one side calling the other flamers or bullies (that'd be you) I'll try to be more quaint when I makes sum funnies next time though, I'll be sure to add a lot of smiley face winkies so you pinpoint the exaggerations in my jokes.

In the words of Boxxy, "I AINST TROLLIN". News flash: When someone disagrees with you, it doesn't make them a flamer, troll, or a "disrespectful person". You'll find on Tip.It I rarely dole out respekt to people who create threads just to cry about the community. It's the elephant that's been in the room for years, and everyone's stopped bothering mentioning him as long as he doesn't soil the rug or eat our potted plants, because he's not going away and feeding him will only make him bigger. Really? I thought the thread was a whine-off on how Runescape's community used to be a paradise of fr33 st0ff, niceties, and mature people, of which runescape has never been any of the three, and there'll be another thread just like this next month saying the exact same thing. The community hasn't gotten worse, per capita, it's just gotten bigger, and while the percentage of bad users hasn't changed much, they've just gotten a lot more vocal. The game itself has changed for a much greater good. The only major changes I've seen in the community are the lack of mass-autoers, and the return of a lot of Edgeville pkers who left in 07 when the big updates hit.
